Inspired By:
My focus is healthcare design – I am driven to provide healing spaces for patients and supportive spaces for caregivers. The continuous advancements in medicine and continued research on improving patient outcomes are what inspire me.
Keys to a Successful Project:
Information-gathering and communication. Without gathering adequate information from our clients, we cannot deliver a successful project. Communicating our proposed solutions to their challenges is key in order to gain buy-in and to allow clients to feel included in the design process.

Favorite Haworth Collection Piece:
What Is Special About It:
The form of the LC4 has withstood time and style. When upholstered in the cowhide, it gives the chaise an
approachable flair that you can’t help but want to interact with. It’s grounded yet suspended sit is
surprisingly comfortable, defying its initial appearance. It’s truly where art meets form
